Batting icon Sunil Gavaskar hailed England-based Solly Adam’s unselfish contribution to cricket as he made around 400 cricketers from India and Pakistan feel like home during their playing days in the UK.

Gavaskar was speaking as a chief guest at the launch of Adam’s book, Beyond Boundaries at the Cricket Club of India on Sunday. “If you go to somebody’s house, you just feel at home. It doesn’t happen with everybody, but Solly has always been… I stayed at his place so many times, it’s unbelievable,” Gavaskar said.
